This study had several variables. One major independent variable is the qualitative questionnaire that was verbally given. In this scenario the dependent variable would be the measurement of the data that was collected. The process of a cause-effect relationship can be considered here. Qualitative research is often

Statistics Overview of Elementary Concepts in Statistics. In this introduction‚ we will briefly discuss those elementary statistical concepts that provide the necessary foundations for more specialized expertise in any area of statistical data analysis. The selected topics illustrate the basic assumptions of most statistical methods and/or have been demonstrated in research to be necessary components of one’s general understanding of the "quantitative nature" of reality (Nisbett‚ et al.‚ 1987)

Statistical mechanics or statistical thermodynamics[note 1] is a branch of physics that applies probability theory‚ which contains mathematical tools for dealing with large populations‚ to the study of the thermodynamic behavior of systems composed of a large number of particles. Statistical mechanics provides a framework for relating the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic bulk properties of materials that can be observed in everyday life‚ therefore explaining

Sample Paper Population definitionSuccessful statistical practice is based on focused problem definition. In sampling‚ this includes defining the population from which our sample is drawn. A population can be defined as including all people or items with the characteristic one wishes to understand. Because there is very rarely enough time or money to gather information from everyone or everything in a population‚ the goal becomes finding a representative sample (or subset) of that population.
